of the guys.

on edit: i see from your other posts that according to you 'the guy i like' is the dear leader of north korea.

because i posted an article that attempted to explain why the most powerful country in the world is all hot & bothered about north korea, population 24 million, gdp 40 billion.

fucking scary man! i'm so scared!

all the propaganda has more to do with china than north korea. It's our capitalist class that funded china and built it up, maybe you should talk to them about why they did that.

To be expected. Worst recession in modern history. phleshdef May 2013 #18

slower recovery jobs-wise than the great depression. & unemployment was higher under reagan. HiPointDem May 2013 #19

Thats fairly misleading considering the unemployment rate was stuck well above 10%, even above 15%. phleshdef May 2013 #63

"& unemployment was higher under reagan." HiPointDem May 2013 #66

The recession Reagan faced was overall way less significant, especially the housing market. phleshdef May 2013 #74

From the worst recession after the Great Depression. Ikonoklast May 2013 #60

depends on how you define 'worst', the reagan recession reached higher unemployment. HiPointDem May 2013 #61

And he had a Democratic House and Senate fix it for him, that's why it was shorter. Ikonoklast May 2013 #62

Unemployment is just one economic factor. phleshdef May 2013 #64

You may wish to explain yourself better and write more clearly then. LanternWaste May 2013 #75

Perhaps you'd prefer to return to the 10+% rate at the height of the recession? Sheesh. RBInMaine May 2013 #81
